Buy it,dont buy it?
It's a 67chevy small window cab 350/350 car motor needs rockers and 1cab corner both bed panels and tailgate is shot.
Has a electrical short draining the battery and the engine leaks oil. And the trans leaks fluid pretty bad. OK its been changed over to 5lug nonpower disc brakes with new white letter tires and ralley wheels. It cranks up and sound alright but he carries a 5gallon container of oil and tranny fluid around with him for when it needs a drank and buy lookin under the truck its a fluidaholic.lol He want 1.300 for it, I want a small back glass cab but I dont want one that bad,I offered him a grand but he said NO. What would you do?

this is a no-brainer... all it needs is body work, engine work, and electrical work...what's left? if all you need is a cab, I'd keep looking. Even if you're looking for an entire truck, I'd keep looking...

Keep lookin.
You'll find one when and where you least expect it. Unfortunitely, I learned that after I paid twice what my truck was worth  . I know how to walk away now.

Too bad you are so far away. I am taking the small window off my stepside and putting a panoview cab on. I am going to put the small window on the rotisserie and really do it up nice...have all the pieces. Should be ready about the time you get to Seattle!!!

Um wait for a 2wd blazer I say! But truthfully that deal don't sound bad to me with the 5 hole conversion done and all. If it's a SWB it's worth it.

That sounds really high for that truck unless its a swb and even then its kind of hi in that condition. Been a while since I lived down there. Hows the truck situation in upstate South Carolina ? Looked in the papers . Seems like you'd find something decent up in the hills in North Carolina for cheaper
